What are the features and how will they benefit you? |
|
Dual Image Stabilisation – CCD Shift plus electronic stabilisation both work to counteract blurred images due to shaky hands, subject movement or when shooting in low-light conditions. Also important at full zoom where a small movement of the hand can cause a lot of movement at the other end.
SR Auto – Scene Recognition Auto mode automatically selects from 6 different scene modes and instantly fine tunes exposure, focus, sensitivity, and white balance. Makes shooting great pics easy without having to fiddle with camera settings and menus.
Face Detection – focuses and sets correct exposure on faces (up to 6), rather than other objects that may appear in the frame.
33mm Wide Angle 12x Optical Zoom Lens - wide-angle 12x zoom lens allows you to shoot beautiful landscapes or capture great group shots as well as zoom in to distant subjects without loss of image quality.
Instant Zoom – follows moving subjects in standard wide view for easy framing at high zoom settings. With a single press of a button, the subject tracked within the selected frame on the LCD, will be captured and saved at a high zoom ratio (1.4x or 2x digital zoom).
Tracking Autofocus - tracks the subject automatically for as long as the shutter is half pressed and the subject is kept inside the frame.
Panorama Mode - captures and combines 3 consecutive shots, that are saved to the memory card as a single panoramic picture.
Auto Red-eye Removal – automatically removes red-eye in-camera. Great if you’re printing directly from the camera.
High Speed Shooting – shoot up to 13.5 frames per second – ideal for capturing fast-moving subjects such as sports, animals, kids.
Super Macro Mode – take stunning close-ups as near as 2cm from subject. |
